Reply to "RHP was recruited to play in college - without playing travel. It's possible."

Clearly, the competition within the entire college system has increased due to covid. Way too many great players and not as many spots. I'm grateful my son found a spot since 90 velo seems to be dime a dozen now. Crazy.  He's on the skinny side at  6" 4" 210lbs. So he needs another 15lbs of muscle to throw harder and stay on the mound in college, I think. I agree our strategy would never work for a position player - since they get recruited mostly on hitting, and need travel level pitchers coming at them. But I do believe with so much competition now, players need to be very strategic if they want to get recruited and actually play on a college team. I think my son would be sitting for two years if he went with one of his mid-D1 offer. The D3 coach was all over him so we're hoping "go where you're loved" plays out at this school. We'll see.
